The Royal extraterrestrial exploration society

For the past 2 weeks we have been reading a book called The Royal extraterrestrial exploration society. It is about people going to Mars wanting to collect samples and natives for the museum in U.K. Half way in the story they meat a martian called Zorah who things they came to become a colony of Mars but she was wrong. In the end they went home with nothing but few photo's of the martian.
